Tankless Saves More Energy
Tankless units heat water only when the faucet is turned on and usually operate on natural gas or propane. The main advantage of a tankless water heater is that they eliminate the cost of storing hot water in a storage tank, so you waste less energy. A tankless water heater uses 30 to 50% less energy than units with tanks, saving a typical family $100 or more per year.

Take Up Very Little Space
A tankless water heater is much smaller than a convention water heater. It mounts on the wall and takes up very little space. Conventional water heaters take up a lot of space so going tankless means more storage space for you.

No Leakage
Over time, conventional water heaters are constantly filled with water day in and day out and over a period of years, they will begin to leak. Because tankless water heaters do not store water, there’s nothing to leak ever.

The Cons:

Upfront Cost
You often see smaller units, which won’t produce enough hot water to serve most households. They are designed to serve one faucet at a time, a real problem if you want to shower while the dishwasher is running. The larger units that can handle the demand of an entire family are expensive.

Professional Installation
Tankless units have high-powered burners and special venting requirements, which unless you have pro-level skills, require professional installation; this is not a DIY project. When you’re pricing a unit, be sure to get a firm estimate or firm bid on installation costs.

Client Testimonials

What a positive experience working with Sallie to sell our lake home! She was kind, hard working, kept us informed, a problem solver and great person. I would highly recommend her!!L. Davis ~ Nov, 2018

We started looking around the Lake Murray area in October of 2017 with very little information about the area as far as neighborhoods went. We were referred by a friend to Sallie Chester after starting with another REALTOR. Sallie was very knowledgeable and knew the lake well. She was professional and absolutely one of the nicest people we’ve been around. After one year of looking, we found the perfect home for us; it was exactly what we wanted. Sallie was never pushy or impatient; she was willing to meet us anytime we needed, usually on a quick notice. What a blessing it was to find her! Thank you Sallie.Keith and Dawn B ~ Nov, 2018

Sallie Chester helped us look for our perfect lake home on and off for four years. She would point out issues with homes that sometimes we did not notice. We never felt pressured by her to buy a home. When we finally found the home we wanted and issues arose, Sallie worked diligently to help resolve them. Whenever we had questions, Sallie was always available to answer them. If anyone asks for a reputable REALTOR, I would urge them to use Sallie Chester.Tricia and Tim G. ~August 2018
